If the second one suits you better, then the name of our protagonist today will ring a bell. This is Patry Jordán, the best-known sports ambassador in Spain. Talking about Patry Jordan is talking about the queen in training videos. In another article we told you 10 things about Patry Jordan, today we want you to know his story, how he went from being just another young woman to becoming a benchmark in the world of sports and social networks.
HOW DID PATRY JORDAN START?
Your YouTube channel Gym virtual has been offering us the best training sessions for more than 10 years. If you think of Patry Jordan, an image of her giving it her all in leggings and a sports top automatically comes to mind, but you may not know this. Did you know that before creating fitness content, Patry launched into the networks in a very different world?
If you were already a fan of YouTube in 2010, then you know what we're talking about. Patry Jordan was born on November 2, 1984 in Girona. Since she was little, she had always been linked to two worlds: that of beauty and that of sport. In fact, he studied aesthetics, hairdressing and image consulting. In 2010, she posted her first video on her YouTube channel: Girls' Secrets. For many years she published beauty videos, how to put on makeup, hair tricks, hairstyles... The success was overwhelming and on March 13, 2015 her first book came out: My beauty ideas to shine every day
THE "VIRTUAL GYM" REVOLUTION
Patry Jordán was already a well-known young woman during those years and any girl who followed the world of networks had turned to her more than once to get ready for her next special occasion or to try a new makeup. However, her true success came from the hand of Gym Virtual, the channel that catapulted her. She had already told some sports advice, but we had never seen her work as a virtual coach.
WHAT ENCOURAGED PATRY JORDÁN TO LAUNCH AS AN ONLINE TRAINER?
Sports did not come to him by chance. His father was a soccer coach, his mother owns a gym, and his brother works as an analyst at FC Barcelona. She had been a footballer as a forward and at that time worked in a gym and in a communication agency. One fine day he thought: "what I want is to create a virtual gym". Currently the idea of an online gym is something more than normal for us, but since 2010 things have changed a lot. She proposed the idea to her boss and although he thought it was a good idea, she saw that the months went by and nothing happened, so she decided to start it herself. Created the youtube channel Gym Virtual. From day one success was guaranteed. Millions of people looking for ways to take care of themselves and lead a healthy life followed all his advice and training and have achieved their goals. If you type Virtual Gym, you will find everything: cardio exercises, strength, abs, buttocks...
In 2020, during the months of confinement, Patry Jordán was the best friend of many young women who, locked up, wanted to spend a few minutes of their day training and escaping. His audience grew like foam and in each house it became part of the regular agenda of each day. After that year of the pandemic, his success increased very significantly. Today, her residence is in Andorra, where she lives with her husband Carles Galí, who helps her throughout this fitness empire.
MUCH MORE THAN A COACH
Patry Jordán is certainly a prescriber of sports and beauty. But not only is he good at training and motivating his followers, he also knows how to succeed outside of the gym. In 2019, he dared to try a new communication model: the podcast. If you go to his official website you can listen to the almost 30 episodes he has recorded. They all revolve around self-improvement, effort, changing habits, fears... repeating her life motto "I can handle everything", which we hear so many times in her videos. In 2020 he tried again with a new format: Emprendiendo voy, his second podcast. Available on Podimo, the influencer and businesswoman tells about her experience and gives advice on the world of entrepreneurship. It encourages young people to follow their dreams, dare to undertake and set up their own business.
But it doesn't stop there, Patry Jordán has worked with many of the big sports firms. This March 2022, barely a month ago, her collaboration came out as an ambassador for Dash & Stars, a sports brand launched by the giant Tendam. He knows better than anyone what he wants when training: the best fabric, comfort and lightness, and he is demanding when it comes to collaborating with a brand, he only wants the best quality products and will not settle for less.
YOUR SECRET TO HAVING A BODY 10?
Patry Jordán's lifestyle is based on three pillars, take note!
- SPORTS
The sport has been present all his life. She does not consider it something aesthetic, but rather a way to let off steam, feel good about herself, gain discipline, learn to improve herself... Although she usually does her routines indoors, the reality is that she enjoys sport the most is with training outdoor in nature. When you do running or any sport in natural surroundings you disconnect from all problems, a connection between mind, body and nature occurs. This combination is the best therapy.
- FEEDING
Patry Jordan doesn't believe in restrictive diets or obsessing over food. He has always defended a style that eats everything. If you forbid yourself something, this will become a desire and you will end up eating badly and cravingly, creating an unhealthy relationship with food. The key is to try everything, maintaining a balance and always exercising. However, in recent years he has tried vegetarianism and only reaped benefits. So many benefits that he has written a book on the veggie life.
- SELF-CARE
A balanced diet together with a sports routine are the fundamental basis. However, there are more elements that are just as important. You have to work on self-care, either physically or psychologically. On the one hand, it is important to give the body what it needs, hydrate ourselves well on the outside and inside, pamper the skin with creams, take the daily dose of sun...
On the other hand, take care of our emotional state. At the end of it all, the most important thing will always be our emotional well-being. Without emotional well-being, there is no kind of well-being. In such a crazy world, stress, anxiety and lack of motivation are some of the difficulties that society suffers and we must learn to manage these situations. It encourages us to be a little "selfish", prioritize ourselves, know how to say "no" without feeling bad and say "yes" only when we feel like it, only then will we achieve our best version.
A COMMITTED WOMAN
Patry Jordán is so well liked and has an army of followers not only because he gives the best fitness tips and motivates people to be in shape like no one else, he is also an empathetic, concerned and very close person. In a world that is sometimes apparently frivolous and "posture", the influencer shows us a side that is somewhat more caring. We have seen her developing and participating in different projects with which to collect photos for sick people, research into rare diseases, social causes... She has recently embarked on a new initiative again. The association Proyecto Alpha, together with the Hospital Sant Joan de Déu Barcelona, are developing a research project to find a possible treatment against Leg-girdle Muscular Dystrophy, a rare disease. It is a documentary with the name of “Never stop moving ”. Among the characters they have counted on for this action is our favorite prescriber, together with athletes such as Lucas Vázquez, Real Madrid footballer; or Aritz Aramburu, Spanish surfing champion.
Now you know everything about Patry Jordán. Have you visited his channel? If you haven't already, we encourage you to open your computer, put on your favorite leggings and follow one of their many fitness routines.
